NO, I did note type it wrong and yes it is all CBX, sorta lol. I stumbled on this and because of the guys engineering skills wanted to share it for those of you as nutty as me. I used to work with one of the USA companies on the V8 bikes, what a frickin nightmare lol.

Well heres a link to a bit more about it and a vid to show his great workmanship. Most bikes like this are badly engineered and look terrible. This guy has done a great job to keep it as clean as possible.

Hope you read to the part about the H16 motor, it takes dedication, skill and much time to do such work. I just wanted to share it.

Oh Wow yes I can appreciate the engineering. 12 into 4 zorst system alone.  Didn't realise at first its "2 cbx 6 cylinder engines welded together" (makes t sound so easy).  Good luck with the H16 I say!

Many years ago I was in awe of a chap who 'welded' two Yam RD250 engines together' to make his own RD500 before the one we all know was made.

Great post.
